Fans go wild as MasterChef Australia favourite Poh Ling Yeow returns to the show

Poh Ling Yeow is one of the most beloved contestants in MasterChef Australia history. 

And on Sunday night, the chef returned to the show as a guest judge – leaving the contestants star struck. 

She was joined by former contestants Reynold Poernomo and Callum Hann on the judging panel. 

Fans at home were equally enthused, with many professing how much they missed seeing the 48-year-old on the show. 

One person Tweeted: ‘Man, Poh truly lights up the screen every time she’s on it’. 

Another viewer chimed in: ‘Seeing Poh, Callum and Reynold makes me remember how good the all-star season of #MasterChefAU was’. 

Someone else wrote: ‘I am here for wholesome Callum and delightful Poh content tonight.’ 

Yet another Tweeted: ‘Aunty Poh is BACK everything is good in the world’. 

One more added: ‘Poh is such an important part of Australia’s food story, so nice hearing so many contestants feel the same way’. 

Someone marvelled: ‘We could have ditched the week of superstars on a giant screen and just got Poh to pop in each night. Contestants are star struck!’ 

Others lusted over the chef’s sweet creations, with one fan writing: ‘I would die to taste Poh’s goodies right now’.

Poh was a runner-up on the first season of MasterChef Australia in 2009 and came sixth in its all-stars season MasterChef Australia: Back To Win last year.
